So, I bought a 4.5" lift from rough country a month or two back. Got that installed, and the stock wheels/tires looked kinda girly up under there. When I went down town to get a quote on wheels/tires, the price was a bit over my budget. I happened to find a set of 4 BF Goodrich MudTerrain KM2 tires for $500. They are 305/70r17 and have a good amount of tread life left.

Now that I have the tires, I need wheels, and also need to figure out how much trimming I need to do. I was told to look into Black Rock soft 8's but am unsure what I am looking at, especially in regards to back spacing. Any advice would be appreciated.

3.5-4" of backspacing will work. Get some good bumpstops and trim until they don't rub when you flex.

 

Thanks for the help. Went ahead and did what you suggested and this is the unfinished product. Still need to pretty it back up some, but it works for now.
